Ingredients:

  • 6 tinned pineapple slices
  • 1 cup plain flour (for batter)
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 1/4 cups cold water
  • Vegetable oil for deep frying
  • 1/2 cup plain flour (for dusting)

Method:

Sift flour and baking powder into a bowl and whisk in water until batter is lump free.

Leave to stand for 10 minutes.

Drain pineapple and dust in plain flour.

Using a fork, dip them in batter to coat and use a 2nd fork to drop them into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown. (2-3 minutes)

Drain on paper towel and dust with a little icing sugar.

Serve with maple syrup and ice-cream.

Notes

  • This is such a simple recipe and turns out delicious.
  • Don't forget to let the batter stand. It gives the baking powder time to do its thing.
  • Be careful when they come out of the fryer. The fritters will be very hot! These are delicious slices of tinned pineapple dipped in a sweet batter and fried until golden.
